The September Issues are out. If you haven’t seen them, here they are:

Selena Gomez is on the cover of both Seventeen and Girl’s Life (if you read that. I think it skews to a younger crowd, like 10-15, but maybe you do). Interesting. I know her from The Witches of Waverly Place, which I know because my niece and nephew are Disney Channel stans. Nice to see some new faces on the cover of these magazines. And by “new,” I mean diverse. Take that how you want it, but I once collected all the CosmoGIRL! (r.i.p) covers that were of women of color and, let me just tell you that there weren’t many. So props to the girl Selena, she really seems to be doing her thing.

Taylor Momsen, of GG fame, is on the cover of Teen Vogue. I can’t really speak on her or the show since I don’t watch it. (Don’t judge me) But I don’t see anying too interesting or surprising on the cover. Actually, I take that back. I’d like to read that article on “Three Super Models Spill Their Secrets.” Sounds interesting. Now, I would be remiss in my duty as a journalist to just comment on the cover lines (although, to be fair, that is the initial draw, along with the cover model, of any magazine on the newsstand) without actually reading the magazines. So, I’ll make sure I do that for the October issues. Hmmm… I may have to start subscribing again. Or, I can just read them at the library.

Is that it for the teen magazines? Just Seventeen and Teen Vogue, basically. Am I forgetting anything? If not…Wow.  That’s kind of unfortunate. Not to worry though, ours will be available in the coming months. Yes, there will be a print magazine as well. And I can’t wait!

So tell me something…what magazines do you read? Any? Love ’em? Hate ’em?  What do you like/dislike about them? Speak your piece!
